Best Den Poems

Deep in the Canadian wilderness she gave birth to four pups,
     It was a large dug out hole at the base of a tangled tree;
Her mate for life was out hunting with the pack for deer or elk,

Hate is such a strong word
Much mental anguish will be incurred
Maintaining this painful thought
Is a long way from hitting the jackpot
This place which I spend most of the day
Makes me want to breakaway
Leave this mundane office with no daylight
Escape from the hustle of the bull...

I can relate to Daniel and the lion’s  den. That’s the name my mom named me when I was born with sin.  My mom named me that name in the Bible. She saw that it came from God’s word which is reliable. Daniel...

Daniel In the Lion’s Den

Daniel was one of three administrators
Who ruled over 120 satraps
Appointed by King Darius
Who agreed to important edicts
One of these edicts
Was a public decree
That no worship was possible
Unless to Darius on bended knee


So when Daniel was found
To pray three times per day
To...

A rascal up north, poet Ken,
had retired one night to the den.
He woke to the stares
of six angry bears
and fought them all off with his pen.

Im frühen Morgenlicht
Der Tau auf hellen Gräsern
So einsam leuchtend

Early morning light 
The dew on bright shiny grass 
So solitary shining

En la luz de la mañana
El rocío sobre la hierba clara 
Tan solo está brillando

Daniel, a man who loved to pray
despite the law to worship Darius as King
would not be moved from His sovereign
faithful He was standing on to bring

Three times every day Daniel prayed
giving thanks to God for HIs goodness
this news was told to the King
forcing the Kings'...

Perhaps we have loved before
in the Lupanar of Pompei
goddess of Priapus
the overseer
of the fertile garden
commanded me.

We perspired upon pillows
stuffed with reeds
feathers and straw
most unwitting lady
whispered to me
"You will be Priapus!"

Content within you
likeness of dedicated fruit
made love into real fruit
worn lascivious acts
woman of well-borne grapes
dark skinned...

He roars from the distance, instilling in everyone, terror and fear
Approaching stealthily, though unseen, somehow you sense he's near.
Then, in an incomprehensible instant of time, before you can react
The lion lunges at you, the unwary prey, in an outrageous attack.

The roar is intentional, skillfully utilized,...

Back in my hole in the back of the den
racking up souls with every heart that I spend

Laughing at those birdies floating far far away
half in astral detentions known to scar and fillet

Compacted in thy dirt, I’m comfortable in failure
It’s only after that I’ll hurt,...

The den of the unknown 
I Dine  with the devils
      I eat with the demons 
     Then I drink with satan 
 But
I never realise I was a saint 
Till I knew the  unknown...

The Bronx Zoo has a monorail
I’ve ridden many times.
It takes you into “Asia”
And the natives of its climes.

Passing elephants and rhinos
It has shuttled folks for years,
As they’ve watched amazing creatures,
Safely sitting on their fears.

But last week, just as the monorail
Approached the tiger’s den,
Someone leaped out...

I went to the Dragons to try and make a deal.
I didn't consider, how scared I would feel.

On the tables beside them, were piles of cash.
I became so nervous, I broke out in a rash.

Tongue tied I fumble, my ideas unclear.
How in the world, did...
